Merida eSILEX 400 2022

Sometimes a small push is all that’s needed to open up a whole new world of exploration. The eSILEX 400 pairs a sleek, lightweight frame with versatile gravel tyres on 700c rims to the helping hand of the MAHLE ebikemotion X35+ hub drive motor and a 250 Wh battery to help expand your riding horizons. A fully-featured frame and carbon fork with plenty of mounts is ideal for overnight bikepacking trips or smaller adventures, while the smooth shifting and powerful braking of the Shimano GRX groupset with double chainset makes for reliable companions, on or off the road If you are often looking for the off-road alternative when you are out on your bike or simply enjoy exploring the path unknown, then the eSILEX might be the perfect assisted bike for you. The rear-hub MAHLE system with integrated battery offers a neutral support level whenever your journey requires some e-motor assistance.

You can even use an externally mounted 208 Wh MAHLE Range Extender to boost range. Similarly to the non-assisted SILEX, the eSILEX is available in the more rugged 650b or the more fast-rolling 700c set-up. Both versions come with gravel/off-road tyres for extra grip. A large number of fixing points on the frame as well as the fork, turn the eSILEX into an adventure rig without any fuss.
